Northeast Early College

Summary:

Northeast Early College is a public high school in Denver, Colorado, serving 561 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the School District No. 1, which is ranked 78 out of 116 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The student population is predominantly Hispanic (76.11%), followed by African American (14.08%), and smaller percentages of other racial groups.

Northeast Early College consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Colorado high schools, with a ranking between 315-330 out of 349-411 schools in recent years. The school has received 0-1 stars out of 5 from SchoolDigger, indicating poor academic performance compared to other schools in the state. Its test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages across various assessments, including CMAS, SAT, and PSAT. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 9% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in SAT Mathematics, compared to 28% for the district and 31% for the state. The school's performance on various student subgroups, such as Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Low Socioeconomic Status students, is also concerning, ranking in the bottom quartile.

When comparing Northeast Early College to nearby schools within the same district, such as DSST: Montview High School and Northfield High School, the performance gap is quite significant. These nearby schools consistently outperform Northeast Early College on academic measures, with higher test scores, better rankings, and more favorable student demographics. Despite these challenges, Northeast Early College's status as an early college high school presents an opportunity for students to earn college credits while in high school, and leveraging this model with targeted support and interventions could potentially help improve student outcomes and prepare them for postsecondary success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
